Point Zero Forum

Where the rules get written. Point Zero Forum returns to Zürich for its fifth edition as the meeting point between the policymakers shaping European finance and the industry building under their frameworks.

Three questions define the 2026 agenda: whether Europe can produce a credible answer to dollar-denominated stablecoins before the window closes, whether MiCA and the AI Act hold at enforcement scale, and whether the Savings and Investments Union can unlock €11 trillion in European deposits to close the gap with US capital markets.

The Forum brings these questions out of policy papers and into the room — through keynotes, panels, and closed-door roundtables under Chatham House Rule. Speakers include Sarah Breeden (Bank of England), Piero Cipollone (ECB), Carolyn Rogers (Bank of Canada), Burkhard Balz (Deutsche Bundesbank), and EU Commissioner Maria Luís Albuquerque. The conversations range from the digital euro to AI agents in financial services to the race between MiCA, GENIUS, and CLARITY to become the global standard for digital asset regulation.

For any firm whose business depends on knowing where European financial infrastructure is heading — this is where that gets decided.

🗓 June 23–25, 2026 · Kongresshaus, Zürich, Switzerland
